30. But it's so much easier to belive they hate us for our freedoms

That's a much easier and, frankly, more palatable explanation than all this complicated stuff. One of the key differences between how liberals and conservatives think is that conservatives for for the easy, low-energy explanations, hence they gobble up the "hate us for out freedoms" like it's Reagan's divine jizz.

Similarly, it's easier to believe that poor people are poor because they're lazy, as opposed to that their ancestors were brought to this country to be slaves, not to take part in the great experiment that America was based on. They weren't going to have the chance to make something of themselves, build a great business, etc. It's easier to think they're lazy than about how the idea got so ingrained in culture that even teachers don't expect them to do anything more than be wage slaves at a gas station. It's easier not to think about the long process of changing people's minds en mass.
